The late Robert Grossman‘s 1978 Academy Award nominated claymation short film, “Jimmy The C” can be downloaded here. It’s a classic. With Trump as our not-so-funny national embarrassment and the Republican dominated Congress as his cat toy, it is refreshing to recall when political satire was done with a certain amount of respected for the satirized. Watch this (get through the distorted sound in the beginning of the video) and try to have a pleasant day, despite it all.
